What KVA rating is required for a transformer that must handle a maximum load current of 8 Amperes with a secondary voltage of 2 kv?
The load is the product of the load current and the secondary voltage. So, in this example, the load is 8 x 2000 = 16 000 volt amperes, or 16 kVA. This must not exceed the transformer's rated kVA.
What will be the recommended size cable size for 400 KVA transformer?
3r x 300sq.mm Al. ar UG cable <<>> Wiring is sized by the amperage that is used by the load. The formula for amps is I = W/E. Amps = Watts (or VA)/Volts. As you can see an answer can not be given unless a voltage is stated. The lower the primary voltage the larger the amperage will be and likewise the larger the wire size will be.
What is the minimum load require to put transformer?
A transformer requires a 75-kVA minimum load in order to be set.
When using a resistive load bank to test a generator do you load it to the kW or the kVA?
When using a resistive load bank to test a generator, it does not matter if you load the generator to its kW or kVA rating, because those two numbers are the same when considering a resistive load. Power factor, which is the difference between true and apparent power, only comes into play when there is a reactive (inductive or capacitative) load.
What kva is 46amp?
KVA is kilo volt amp, and one needs to know both the voltage and the amperage, and possibly the phase angle. It is comparable with kilowatts for a resistive load.
What wire size is needed for 9.5 kva for amp load?
9.5 Kva is the is the same as 9500 watts. Formula for Amps = Watts/Voltage. As you now can see you didn't give me any voltage so that the amperage can be calculated. Without the amps the wire size can not be calculated. Reply in a discussion if you are interested in an answer.
What is the xlpe for a 34.5kv?
How to compute for the size of wire in the primary side of 2500 kVA transformer 34.5kV
What size of cable wire used for 500 kva transformer 240 volt 3 phase?
A 10 mm cable is most commonly used for a 500 KVA transformer, 240 volt, 3 phrase. The size of the wire that is used in a transformer is based on the voltage.
What is the cable size for a 1500 kVA generator with cable length of 50 meters?
35 KVA generator using for load 100 meter length which cable need to used
When using an external resistive load bank to test an engine driven generator do you load it to kVA or KW?
It does not matter, when testing a generator with a resistive load bank, if you load it to kVA or KW. For a resitive load, i.e. non-reactive load, the power factor is one, so kVA and kW are the same.
What size wire 100 kva transformer?
Wire sizing of a feed conductor is based on the amperage that a device draws. To calculate amperage from KVA a voltage of the supply has to be stated. Without this voltage and whether the transformer is single or three phase an answer can not be given.
Do the load carried by a transformer is affected by KVA rating?
yah! definately affects, the kva of transformer is suitable for the certain load according to the rating.
What KVA rating is required for a transformer that must handle a maximum load current of 8 Amperes with a secondary voltage of 2 kv?
The load is the product of the load current and the secondary voltage. So, in this example, the load is 8 x 2000 = 16 000 volt amperes, or 16 kVA. This must not exceed the transformer's rated kVA.
What is the kva load for a two bedroom flat?
A kva load in the text that you use it is the same as a wattage load. To find your answer just total up all of your appliance wattage's, portable and hard wired, in the unit and this will give you an idea of what you have for a load.
What size ground wire for a 30 kva transformer?
The size of grounding wire is based on the amperage output of the transformer. The voltage of the transformer needs to be stated. Without this voltage a calculation can not be made. Amps = Watts/Volts = 30000/?.
How do you solve for the size of wire when the given is kva?
The V stands for volts and A is amps. If for example you have a 12kVA device and are running off a voltage of 120 volts then Amps = 12000/120 = 100. You then use the calculated amps in a wire size table to get the correct size.
What is the full load current for1600 kva transformer?
It depends on the rated voltage. Take 1600 KVA and divide by KV, and you will get A.
